Here the steps to reproduce the bug: a movie file is dragged and dropped onto the Avidemux main window and it's opened; then File>Close is clicked, finally a second movie file is dragged and dropped onto the main window. The cursor changes to the "no sign" and the movie is not opened.
This issue is not specifically related with the Win32 r8711 version I'm using, I've noticed it in the previous versions too.
Thanks, have a nice day.
I've noticed that as well.
After closing, drag the next one to the title bar. Verify that title bar reflects the correct video name.
Yes, the title bar works - so does the thin horizontal bar that separates the viewing window from the controls and the thin vertical bar between the viewing window and the drop-down menus. Very strange, but for now it's a work around.
